Your Destinations —
Cape Town
There is such a diversity of attractions and activities you will not be disappointed with your city experience. Offering fantastic views of the city, Table Mountain dominates the skyline. For natural surroundings, there are gardens, beaches and vineyards all close by. Cape Town is steeped in history and many of the museums and monuments have much to tell. For a cosmopolitan and lively experience, visit the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront with a wide variety of shops, restaurants and craft markets.
Cape Town overwhelms the senses. Its cultivated side, the bright lights and big buildings of the city center, collides with its geography — the dazzle and danger of the wind-whipped mountains and the two oceans that embrace it.
Western Cape & Cape Winelands
Garden Route
Knysna stands out on South Africa's famed Garden Route thanks to the sandstone cliffs that dramatically separate its tranquil lagoon from the pounding surf of the Indian Ocean. It's also home to the country's largest indigenous forest.
It is easy to be seduced by the city’s cosmopolitan carpe diem lifestyle and spend a few days on safari too, but the Western Cape itself is a wonderful area to explore by car... This is the kind of holiday that invites introspection, the scenery constantly changing around you, the pace of each new discovery entirely in your hands.

Your Itinerary —
Day 1: Arrival into Cape Town
Upon arrival in South Africa, you will be transferred to your hotel for your 3-night stay in Cape Town.
Explore Cape Town attractions at your own pace. Why not do it on a Hop-On Hop-Off Sightseeing Tour? With two main scenic routes, you'll get to see a heritage-rich city centre on the red route and a breathtakingly beautiful mini-peninsula on the blue route.
The Mother City is probably the most popular starting point for any visit to South Africa and it is here that you can see world-renowned, historical landmarks; climb the summit of Table Mountain, head to Cape Point and more!
See the resident penguins of Boulders Beach; head to the Cape of Good Hope or relish in an adrenaline-filled shark dive, not far out of the city!
Other highlights include Table Mountain, Devil’s Peak, Lion’s Head, Signal Hill and more!
Collect your rental car & set off for famously beautiful Western Cape. In this region, guests can discover the Cape Winelands - the origin of some of the world's most popular wines and a destination of ultimate indulgence and relaxation just north of Cape Town.
Spend the day exploring or simply relaxing and drink in the sites of this mountainous wine region. Try internationally renowned, fine wines and amazing gastronomy too - you don't need to worry about driving at this point because here, you'll do an overnight stay!
Must see: Stellenbosch, Paarl, Franschhoek and Somerset West - each of these destinations are easy to access in the car and boast their own wine route. You can travel from one estate to the next to taste the wines!
Leave Paarl & continue along the Garden Route to the coastal town of Jongensfontein.
Along the way, make stops at Haweqwa Nature Reserve, McGregor, Twistniet Nature Reserve, Overberg and the beautiful towns within Western Cape.
As you leave Western Cape, head east towards Plettenberg Bay. You should stop in the harbour town of Mossel Bay.
Enjoy a tranquil eco-destination where opportunities for observing nature is in abundance! We suggest that you visit the Culture History or the Maritime Museum and take some time out for a hike on the St Blaize Trail - this coastal path will take you through an almost untouched landscape.
Mossel Bay is also a sports enthusiast’s paradise and the ideal place to venture out on a boat trip – head to Seal Island, where you can get a close encounter with some Cape fur seals or go whale watching!
As you arrive into Plettenberg Bay, a seaside town on the Garden Route, explore the area and discover its many treasures. We suggest: Central Beach, Lookout Beach, Robberg Nature Reserve, Stone Age Nelson Bay Caves, Birds of Eden, or a whale watching trip during migration season.
These next few days are to really get into the Garden Route National Park. Visit the famous towns of George or Knysna.
Knysna is built around a huge, natural lagoon, which is connected to the ocean - any visitor of this town will love the striking geological features and the beautiful coastline views. Best known for its oyster farming, Knysna is a great spot for food lovers!
You can also head across the lagoon to see the Featherbed Nature Reserve - this is one of the largest indigenous forests in South Africa, where you can enjoy a hike and forest trail!
Your journey will take you along the famous Storms River in Tsitsikamma National Park within the Eastern Cape province. Adventure junkies will love taking part in various outdoor activities including bungy jumping, mountain biking, bridge-walking and more!
We suggest: The Mouth Trail, The Otter Trail & Nature’s Valley - ideal for nature lovers!
Spend your last bit of time exploring Port Elizabeth. This is a city on Algoa Bay and a major port, which is best known to tourists for its numerous beaches. Top up your tan on the beach or try to fit in a safari - it's really up to you!
